Yo Soy Manuel (Working Title)

Eve Annenberg graduated from the Juilliard School in the Drama Division in Group 14. Other members of Group 14 include Thomas Gibson, Bradley Whitford, Wendell Pierce, Michael Gill, Juliet Pritner and artist Regina Herod. She matriculated at Columbia University Graduate School of Film where her classmates included Kimberly Pierce, Andy Bienen, Patrick Stettner, Tony Gerber, Mark Christopher and the late Alex Sichel among others. She and Robert Pulcini manned the equipment room together. Eve recused herself from graduate school to make her first feature, "DOGS: The Rise and Fall of an All-Girl Bookie Joint" in 1993, her second attempt at a feature film. DOGS is just about ripe for a re-make. She went on to produce approximately eight features because she's good with a dollar. She helped land them diverse A list film festivals such as the Rotterdam Competition, Pusan Gala, New York Jewish Film Festival, etc. She is proud to say she produced Tony Jaswinski ("The Shallows") first feature for a shockingly modest budget and it landed in Sundance Competition. After 9/11 Eve dove into an accelerated course in nursing and became an Emergency Room RN in a variety of New York and Brooklyn hospitals, including Bellevue and Downstate for several years before returning to acting, writing, producing/directing. Eve worked as a visiting hospice nurse for Calvary hospital all throughout her own breast cancer treatment and upon completion of same married artist Matt Jacobs and adopted a sibling group of three brothers from Donetsk, a project necessitating many 22 hour train trips through Ukraine. Originally from Boston Eve attended Boston Latin School, matriculated in the distant past at Wesleyan and NYU, and studied Russian at Harvard. Which has come in shockingly handy. Eve has a project based on her mothers last years, lived with her in a shambolic Lower East Side apartment in the oughts, with pilot and screenplay scripts workshopped through Writers Pad in LA. She is passionate about her three boys, the Levin Report, the work of RAICES, the Parents Family Circle, ditching meat and dairy and the entire town of Provincetown, Mass.
